Samsung S27A850 LED Ultra HD Monitor
Samsung is no stranger to the LCD market. They make LCD panels that set the bar for others to follow and in fact are the ones making the displays for Apple's new iPad. They know how to cram a bunch of pixels onto a panel and the screen we are looking at today has quite a few.
Pros:
- High resolution - 2560x1440
- 3x USB 3.0 Ports
- Lots of height adjustment
- Display can rotate
- Multiple inputs
- Good color quality
Cons:
- Pros
- Construction feels a little cheap
- No Display Port Cable
- Premium price for the extra resolution

Samsung SyncMaster S27A850D review
We don't normally review monitors that cost over ￡500, but Samsung's S27A850D is no ordinary monitor; as well as an impressive features list - a 2,560x1,440 resolution, fully-adjustable stand and three-way USB3 hub - it's the first monitor we've seen using Samsung's new Plane-to-Line Switching (PLS)...

The Samsung SA850 monitor is in a class that is slightly above what the day to day computer user will need but will integrate nicely into a home environment if the advanced features are needed.

Samsung S27A850D
A look at the interesting arrival of PLS panel technology to the market in this 27" screen from Samsung. How does the screen perform and what is PLS technology like? How does it compare with IPS?
Pros:
- Pleasing all round performance from PLS panel
- comparable to e-IPS in many regards
- Smoother
- non-grainy AG coating
- Very good pixel responsiveness
Cons:
- Some backlight bleed issues (may vary
- Poor default setup
- needs calibration ideally
- Some adjustments from the stand are very stiff

Samsung Series 8 S27A850D review
We have a habit of relentlessly banging the TN-vs-the-rest drum. But we do it because we care. Both about technology and your very fine elves. Sorry, selves. Samsung's all-new S27A850D has us at something of a disadvantage. Many of its on-paper specs are thoroughly familiar.

Samsung SyncMaster S27A850D
The S27A850D's adjustable stand and 2,560x1,440 resolution are all good, but it's the new PLS panel, with its amazing contrast and colours

Awesome colors/contrast with a huge resolution!
Great monitor for graphics artists and gamers! Still out on the video playback though.
Pros:
- LED producing awesome colors & contrast
- High Resolution of 2560x1440
- Display Port connection
- USB 3.0 Hub
Cons:
- Certain HD videos have a filmy grain to them
- Haven't tried to correct it yet, but that's all I got for now

Samsung S27A850D
IPS (In-Plane Switching) technology has remained relatively unchallenged at the ‘high end' of the monitor market and has also penetrated into slightly lower-end consumer models in the form of ‘E-IPS'.
Pros:
- Colours are rich
- deep and varied with good consistency
- Excellent high-end brightness
- good luminance range and quite pleasing white purity
- Low haze screen surface handles glare well without profoundly upsetting colour vibrancy or image clarity and is probably the best ‘compromise' we've seen...
Cons:
- Some colours appear too deep and oversaturated
- No hardware-based support for 2.2 gamma standard and a high luminance required to prevent many colours becoming ‘lifeless
- A light haze and mild diffusion leads to slightly inferior clarity and vibrancy compared to a glossy screen surface – you can't...
